Beautiful place! This hostel has a very authentic and welcoming atmosphere, it's beautifully decorated and the common areas are VERY clean and well-decorated. The night I arrived there was a barbecue and I was offered food and drinks for free, so I got some things in the nearby shop to share something too. Played Cards Against Humanity all night with 6-10 ppl, had a blast!

From the moment I arrived and checked in, the staff member was polite and welcoming and was interested in helping me with information for the kind of stay I wanted in Cancun. They had a list of activities, depending on your interests and can arrange tours, nights out (all inclusive) and various other things (taxis, maps, bus information). I found this to be an immediate plus for this hostel, as they were super helpful and informative, treating you like a 5 star guest 🙂 The Mezcal Hostel itself is a lovely rustic building, with a nice, clean little pool and bar area surrounding. There are plenty of seats to relax or socialise and meet other travellers. There is also table tennis and another large relaxing space. This hostel definitely does not have a shortage of space to mingle and meet travellers or retreat and have some quiet time. The building also has a large reception area with a TV and another WIFI zone which is great to get comfortable and catch up with online business. I actually really liked that there is no wifi in the rooms because it forced people to sit and share a common space, and this ended up in lots of conversations with other travellers, thus sharing a lot of travel advice & stories! The bed was very comfortable and the rooms were huge and well cleaned with large rustic bathrooms. I stayed in a room with a balcony and it was one of the best hostel experiences I ever had because it was more like staying in a hotel but with the social aspect of a hostel. Any noise or air conditioning or room space was never an issue for me. The rooms had ample storage space and lockers. There were always staff around, happy to answer any questions or do what they could to make the stay more enjoyable. They also have themed nights in the bar area for travellers to enjoy- Tequilla Jenga was my favourite! The location is great for downtown Cancun, very close to buses and good food places (starbucks and supermarket nearby too).

I loved staying at this place! I actually ended up staying one night in a private room, then 3 nights in a dorm before I went to Cuba, then I returned again to stay when I passed back through Cancun! The private room was so clean & comfortable with a great bead and cute little bathroom. The TV had english speaking channels too and everything was included, towels, blankets, and a free breakfast in the morning. There was plenty of space for luggage and the room was secure. Check in and check out was smooth for me and the staff were helpful! I loved staying at this hostel every night and I would suggest this place for couples travelling who wish to meet other travellers, as well as solo travellers (which was me)!! Perfect hostel to relax and retreat or party on and socialise. There really is something for everyone. Thanks Mezcal and hope to return someday!

Well, it does have a nice vibe of a hostel. Young boys and girls, chatting next to small swimming pool, leaflets from night clubs, easygoing atmosphere. The room was very simple, clean, and looked a bit like a cell, but you don't go to Cancun to sleep, anyway. And with all that it was quiet at night)) So, its a good deal for a group of friends travelling.

Nice funny sort of hostel. Beds are comfy. Everything is clean and very organized. Shower pressure was not the best and sometimes it was hard to get hot water to shower.

Romeo from United Kingdom, January 14, 2017 at 8:46 pm

The location is just a few minutes walk from ado bus station and Mexican supermarket and very close to a 24hr shop. It's very clean, has even a pool and the staff is 5 star one! It's value for money and I'll defo choose it again!!!

Friendly staff, friendly guests, overall great atmosphere. Stayed in a dorm, but it was very comfy, lots of space for my luggage and I felt safe enough to leave my stuff there while being out.

Guillermo from Argentina, January 11, 2017 at 1:45 pm

The hostel design is amazing. Its ideally located close to the Bus Station, and close to Tulum Av. where you can take a bus to the beaches. Would stay there again.

I don't use hostels much, but when my flight was cancelled, it was just what I needed to enjoy another day inexpensively in cancun. The staff is friendly, the guests are pleasant, and the private rooms are clean. Private rooms also come with a private bathroom. Great place and easily accessible to public transportation for a ride along the zona hotelera and el centro which are not far. I felt very safe at this hostel.

the female dorm I stayed in was really spacious and clean. the bathroom was also spacious and clean. very comfortable bed.

Good location and close to major bus station and several supermarkets. One bus can take you to the beaches/hotel zone and the staff is happy to make recommendations for everything from parties for the evening to Chichen Itza tours. Mezcal has a pretty social environment with a pool and lots of areas to chill. In the evenings they'll often do something like play board games or have a bbq. I really enjoyed the week I stayed there and met some cool people. The hostel itself is beautifully designed and they just opened a new addition which doubles their capacity. Definitely worth having a walk through! It's kept impressively clean and toast and coffee is served in the morning. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting Cancun!

The hostel was excellent, the building is so beautiful and well located in the center of Cancún. Dorms are big and confortables. The staff is really helpful. It looks like a hotel, but with nice people.

Annie from United Kingdom, December 13, 2016 at 12:17 pm

"I've stayed in a couple of hostels in Cancun and Mezcal has to be one of my favourites. Beautiful building with massive rooms and a nice pool. The staff were great-reception and entertainment, particularly Gilbert who took us out to party and was always around to advice on tours and activities. Kitchen facilities were good and location is easy for the ADO, supermarket and buses to the beaches. I would definitely go back!

Ziadany from Mexico, December 10, 2016 at 8:40 pm

Their hospitality is amazing, the hostel building is really beautiful, everything is clean and comfortable. Also everyone there was really helpful and gave us ideas to get to know the city better and the surroundings better. The vibe in the place is really cool.

Nathan from Ireland, December 6, 2016 at 2:24 pm

The staff were very responsive to our needs. The location was excellent, very close to the main bus station and bus stops for the hotel zone. Our double room was very spacious with a flat screen tv and en suite. The laundry facilities were also excellent. It was without a doubt the best hostel I have stayed in. Well done mezcal hostel!!

Danica from Canada, November 28, 2016 at 4:57 pm

I loved that I was treated as a friend as soon as I walked through the door. I came early and couldn't move into my dorm yet, so I was given a place to put my bags and was told I was welcome to hang out and use the wifi. This hostel is tucked away on a quiet side street, within a 5 minute or less walk to the bus stop that will take you straight downtown. Supermarkets are also within a 5-10 minute walk. The pool and patio are quaint yet inviting, and there's plenty of room to spread out with your new friends that you'll (definitely) make while you're here.

Camille from Canada, November 24, 2016 at 6:56 pm

Everything, it was clean, the room was really big, and very clean, the people there were very nice and helpfull. I recommend it

Damiano from United Kingdom, November 18, 2016 at 10:21 am

People running this Hostel are great. If you want to meet people and have a laugh while visiting Cancun and all other sites in the Riviera Maya this is the place to be.

Naomi from U.S.A., November 13, 2016 at 11:36 pm

I liked that my bed was in an alcove and I felt I had privacy even sharing it with 5 others. There were doors that opened to a porch – great ventilation. The bed was wide and comfy. Excellent!

Convenient location, especially if are a solo traveler with only a backpack: from ado bus station, walk across a couple of streets at the traffic circle, on Ave. Uxmal, turn right at business with a big "A" sign on the right, then turn left at the oxxo convenience store on the left, look for residence on the left with address number 12 a few houses down the street. From the bus station, you can go to many places cheaply, E.G., less than 10 pesos (3/4 usd) on r1 bus to Hotel Zone, 62 pesos (4.5 usd) for half hour bus ride to cun airport; a couple of guests took the bus to Chichen Itza the morning I left. The staff speak English well, are friendly, Alejandro Alex is helpful and funny (he printed a boarding pass for me, talked about his Albanian roots). Simple breakfast is available in the morning. You can book travel tours on site as at any lodging locations. I talked to guests from the uk, Austria, Germany, Guatemala, Hongkong during the short stay (I'm an Asian-American). If you have just basic needs such as a place to sleep and shower, with not a lot of expectations, this is a value place for you.

The location of hostel is good. ADO bus station is very close. Bus stop for hotel zone is close as well. There r 2 lagguage storage in the room. One is under bed , other is seperate. Staff was helpfull.

Elizabeth from U.S.A., October 13, 2016 at 12:43 pm

This hostel is within walking distance of the downtown bus station. Convenience store is just steps away. Many other restaurants and local eateries are just a short walk. #1 bus from the bus station takes you to the beach. This elegant hostel also has A/C at night and a pool.

Milica from Netherlands, October 2, 2016 at 6:35 pm

Everything, from the helpfulness of the staff to the comfort of my room and people that I met there. Not to forget to mention the pool.

This was by far one of the best hostels in Cancun. The staff was extremely friendly and very attentive. Thanks to Carlos and Alex for all their help. The place had a great swimming pool and the rooms were clean with air conditioning. Met a great bunch of people from all over the world. I will definitely be staying here again when I come back.

Elizabeth from Mexico, September 13, 2016 at 5:37 pm

Jai from Mexico, July 9, 2016 at 5:32 pm

Ambiance made this hostel feel like a house. It was a cute mexican style villa that had a living room, kitchen, and the "dorms" were really like bedrooms. Really clean- they had a cleaning staff that was always present Very close to ADO ( bus station) Plenty of personal space Lockers Staff was always available and super helpful Amazing pool and common areas to hang out Crowd was friendly

Tal from Israel, July 1, 2016 at 1:29 pm
